Ministry of Settlement

The Ministry of Settlement has one goal: settle as many peasants on Rusk as possible. The problem is, settlements keep going belly up before they can get established, destroyed between visits by supply fleets. Farhold has so far been an exception, but this has only made the Ministry of Settlement doubly vigilant regarding the new town.
The Ministry of Settlment has an open pamphlet on Crag’s List detailing rewards to be given for eliminating organized threats to the surrounding wilds, like goblin bands or Gnoll clans. Since these are usually sentient races, this sometimes puts them in conflict with the Ministry of Trade.
